Five of Bundy's associates were also arrested, while another was killed.

Two sources have told The Oregonian that Robert "LaVoy" Finicium, a spokesman for the militia, was killed, though officials have not publicly confirmed that.

According to a statement, the FBI and the Oregon State Police arrested Ryan Bundy, Ryan Payne, Brian Cavalier, and Shawna J. Cox in addition to Ammon Bundy. All were charged with conspiracy to impede federal officers. The charge is a federal felony.

According to The Oregonian, Ryan Bundy suffered a minor gunshot wound during the arrest.

Nevada Assemblywoman Michele Fiore said that Ammon Bundy called his wife, Lisa Bundy, from the back of a police car on Tuesday night.

Fiore, a vocal supporter of the Bundy family, said that Ammon Bundy told his wife that Finicum was cooperating with police and had put his hands up. Then, Fiore said, Bundy told his wife that he watched police shoot Finicum three times. She said that Ammon Bundy also said Finicum was on the ground when he was shot.

Another individual, Peter Santilli, an independent broadcaster who live-streamed the occupation, was also arrested later.

About 25 miles of Highway 395 in Oregon was closed in both directions, a spokesman for the state department of transportation told Reuters.

A hospital in nearby Burns was reportedly on lockdown.

Here's the statement from the FBI:

According to The Oregonian, the remaining occupiers at the refuge have no plans to leave.

The standoff in Oregon began January 2 when an armed group led by Ammon Bundy took control of the headquarters of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in southern Oregon to protest the sentences of two men who set fire to federal land.

Ammon Bundy's father, Cliven Bundy, made national headlines for a tense encounter with law enforcement in a similar dispute in 2014.
